A Dream Book Comes Into Reality
The publishing process was handled personally and we were provided ample time to edit and reedit the manuscript. We were happy with the service and the result.
Shipping time was faster than what we expected.
We are truly grateful to ShieldCrest for making our dream a reality.

HATS OFF TO THE TEAM AT SHIELDCREST !
I have published a couple of books before, but never have I had such a rewarding experience as I have had with ShieldCrest. Their professionalism and their ability to transform my book into something which looks great is really excellent, I am very impressed. A big THANK YOU to Steve and his team for actually putting up with me! I will be sending you my next book as soon as possible! Thank you!
A great publisher
I wrote the words and my grandson did the illustrations for my book Magic & Memories and Shieldcrest did the rest. They made it so easy. A month after publishing it is #22 in Amazon's children's short stories for young adults. So I'm so pleased. Thank you Leigh
A lot more information put in…
A lot more information put in chronological order,very useful.
Novice author
At the age of 82 I decided to write a children's book containing 20 stories. I had never written a book before and so, when it was finished, I didn't have the faintest idea as to what to do next in order to get it published. A friend suggested that I contacted Shieldcrest and so I got in touch. They could not have been more helpful. They gave me lots of information as to what was involved and a clear quotation as to what the costs would be. They found an excellent illustrator for me and did everything else that they had set out in our initial contact to perfection. The quality of the finished hard and softback versions of the book are first class, it is now also available in six different countries on line and I found the speed with which it was all set up breathtaking. They have my wholehearted recommendation and my gratitude.
I ordered my book on Friday
I ordered my book on Friday. And to my amazement got it the next day .amazing service .I will be ordering again .
Excellent Service
Ordered a book and came the very next day as was expecting to arrive in a few days time so very prompt delivery. Received book in very good condition and overall very happy
Excellent
This is the second book I have bought from ShieldCrest and the service both times has been fantastic. The books have arrived very quickly in excellent condition.
The little book about Jo is for…
The little book about Jo is for childen, but in my opinion also wonderful reading for all those who enjoy a perfect match of text and illustrations. I loved the adventures of Jo in a former Shield Crest publication. This time the story is at least as wonderful and the illustrations are marvellous again.
ShieldCrest publishing is high standard, Ordering process is simple and relatively fast. Even though Brexit creates extra customs for delivery to EU countries the overall cost is still below Amazon ordering up from two copies.
Good evening
Good evening, I've just received the ordered books. They look great, but please don't ever collaborate again with "POȘTA ROMÂNĂ" (the national Romanian Post service), as this is the most incompetent and inefficient state-owned company. I had to wait for an hour and a half, in the cold, in an endless queue because the processing time for a client is too long.You could better choose DHL or other private companies.
With my best wishes,
Odette
Impressive delivery
All I can comment on is the ordering process, which was problem free, and the delivery, which was excellent. I ordered the book on December 23rd and it was delivered before 9.30 am on December 26th - impressive at this time of year.
I requested signed copy
I requested signed copy, no special message, just signed. No signature on book. Not the authors fault, he offered to send me one but poor on the part of the publishers
